  1. hey just properly rebuilt a mi16 (1.9) engine with new all new bearings ect. the story goes like this the oil pressure is way too low (on cold start 1500rpm is 3 bar), and as the engine gets warm it looses presure even more of course. so i tried to change the sensors and it didnt help ( the stop light comes on and it falls way under 1 bar when it warms up) i checked the oil pump and it's in ok condition, the valve isn't stuck, and the spring is ok anyone any ideas? i'm out off... could the piston oil spray bars be the problem maybe, or anything else? the crank was messured and it was in good condition, so the standard bearings were fitted
  2. Morning all,well my gti is almost done bar bleeding the brakes and refitting the front bumper. I am going to book it in for mot next week,however i am slightly concerned about the emissions side of things,its a newly rebuilt engine so i am worried they will rev the bollox off it when testing it? The places where i normally go just say "leave it and we ring when its done"-i swear their testers must be part time or summat??!! Also the emissions test itself-what would cause it to fail?? The car in question is a standard 1.6 Gti 1989 Any help or advice would be appreciated.
